    Dirrell Dec Abraham - AA gets exposed as a crude boxer by a greatly improved Dirrell.

    Kessler Dec Froch - probably a SD with Froch getting the nod from one judge for "being the aggressor".

    Ward KO Green - showcase fight for Ward.


    Too early to make further predictions since there is still so much to see from all these fighters.

    I said WARD all the way from day 1 and there werent too many people that agreed with me then. My 1st round picks were right on the money including a 12th round ko by abraham over taylor and a wide ud picking ward over kessler. If there was any suprise in the first round to me, it would be how close the froch-dirrel fight was. I thought froch woulda won it more decisive then he did. In the 2nd round, i dont think green poses any problem for ward. Ill take ward via tko in the 11th. Ill take kessler to outbox froch and abraham to ko dirrel in the 10th.

    Froch - Abraham, KO Abraham
    Ward - Direll, UD Ward

    Semifinals:

    Ward - Kessler, KO Kessler

    Final:

    Abraham - Kessler: Abraham by stoppage


    I've to take AA as the winner, because I said that if AA is able to win a UD against Taylor he'll be my favorite to win the tournament.

    What people tend to forget:

    It not happens accidentally that AA's opponents don't stick to their game plan during the fight. I doubt that anyone of the Super Six can outpoint Abraham, because they will get hit and as soon as they taste Abraham's power they'll get extremely cautious. Skill-wise guys like Dirrell and Ward should be able to win a UD against AA, but to effectivily use those skills during the fight against someone like him is another story.

    Miranda has a punch but i think Froch is the bigger puncher and has more boxing skills


    I think Froch (like all fighters in Super Six beside Green ) is a class above Miranda and Eastman

    Most of you guys have ward and kessler meeting again. That would be an exiting scenario, can kessler learn to beat cope with Ward? would Ward even try the same again or would he try something different.
    And not least where would they meet. :)

    In the end - Andre Ward will be the last man standing. That's all you need to know!

    It must be boring to have no doubts about your favorite fighter. I used to be like that, then he met Calzaghe and Ward. And look now i have no idea if he will win his next fight. :)
